Elvira's Haunted Hills

REVIEW
Lovers of camp have reason to rejoice with this new film by gay director Sam Irvin. Yes, Elvira's back, and she is fabulous! With her voluptuous, corn-fed milky-white cleavage, voluminous black hair, revealing vampiress frocks and hilarious one-liners, the essence of camp oozes from her pores. Elvira's Haunted Hills culls its outrageousness from classic horror flicks, John Waters, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It's chock-full of quirky one-liners like "cross-dressers are usually great dancers" and "but the straight guys like me, too."

The tale begins in 1851 when Elvira and her maid Zou Zou are en route to perform in the Parisian Revue "Yes, I Can Can," but inadvertently end up at the sinister Lord Vladimir Hellsubus' medieval castle. Bearing an uncanny resemblance to Vladimir's long-dead wife, Elvira learns of the Hellsubus curse and finds her life in danger. What's a girl to do? Well, break out into song and dance, of course. Continuing our saga, love-lorn Vladimir (openly gay Richard O'Brien from The Rocky Horror Picture Show) chases our heroine on her cha-cha heels around the castle. Will she escape the family curse and the evil Vladimir, and can she keep her hands off the studly stable master long enough to save the day?
